No offense to HunteronX, because his detail and willingness is greatly appreciated, but that's overkill. I'd do that if I wanted to burn a DVD that had external subs or something, which can be a ***** when the timing gets messed up.

Anyway, you're correct. Just have the .SRT filename match the video source's filename (sans the extension) and voila. This is what I've been after for so long. And this player supports all the eccentric CODECs that none of the other players do. I have tons of Kung Fu movies, Chinese movies and Anime that all play perfectly!!! :) :) :)

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] britoso:
My phone has started rebooting while starting the on-boot apps

This error appears about 10000 (or more) times in the logcat, it reboots before it can get to the end

Just before it started I saw system_server using 100% cpu time.

I was planning on making a nandroid backup just yesterday but didnt :(

Anyone else have this happen?

Update: cleared caches in recovery and that seems to have fixed the issue.

I actually wrote to Access

It is to do with the fact that it is a "hidden tool file" is what they wrote back

Not available in Africa

That is why I am requesting the file as i cannot download it unless I go to Europe or USA

This is crap that you can only download certain files in certian geographic areas.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rilasis:
I was hoping someone could help me get things straight in my head before I proceed any further. Currently I am running stock w/root 1.47. The first thing I did was get titanium backup (donate version) and backup my apps and system data. This is where I am at a loss.

I want to be running a lean, fast phone with wifi tethering. Here are my questions:

I installed ROM manager, can this be used to test out different roms without rebooting into my recovery?

Is there a list of apps I can remove? I can use titanium backup to remove them (also, should I remove, pause, or delete?) Specifically I don't want things like sprint nascar, sprint zone, etc.

Will the roms remove my useless apps, or do I need to do it manually? Specifically I was thinking of installing baked snack.

Thanks
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elegantai:
ROM manager has an option inside the app to boot you into recovery. No way around trying a new Rom other than going into recovery, wiping, and flashing.

Go to the android chef forum and search 'apps safe to remove' and it should turn up a thread that keeps a list of apps you can use.

Most custom roms, including baked snack, remove bloat apps (mostly Sprint apps)
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rilasis:
Awesome, one more thing. I am trying to figure out what to backup using titanium backup. On my stock rom, lets say I have all the apps downloaded that I want to use. Do I want to exclude everything RED on titanium backup and just backup the green programs? When I flash to a new rom and go to titanium backup, if I backed up EVERYTHING and restore it, wouldn't it put the bloatware back on my phone?

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] initial:
You can do video chat fring to fring (not the skype service). Tell your friends to install the fring desktop application and you should be good to.

You can also do android to iphone via fring to fring.

nevermind, they don't have a desktop client. sorry

sipdroid app

sipdroid now has video chat...seems to be great quality...i can call over data or wifi and call for free, but the tutorial (sipdroid wiki and video) uses pbxes (pbxes.org) and i think for video calls you must pay a premium fee of some sort. this would enable evo to desktop. however, evo to evo is free and quality should be much better than fring to fring.

Two questions:

1.) How do you copy/paste on Aria?

2.) How can I save a picture off the Internet browser? (I currently have the default browser installed; if there's a better app I'll go for that.) I can save off texts and emails--double-tap to save--but internets is different.

Thanks y'all.
[HTC Aria General] ryan92084:
Copy/paste is done by a long press on the desired word/text box.
[HTC Aria General] pcruz:
FYI you can't copy and paste in

2.Gmail app
[HTC Aria General] ryan92084:
to clarify you can copy /paste in the text input box but you can't copy what others have sent you unless you first choose to forward the messege. then you can copy it just fine.

[Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] samwathegreat:
Hi guys,

I was wondering if someone has put together an update.zip for stock rooted roms that will enable opengl so that we can run google earth on the phone?

I used to own a Droid Eris, and xda member "jcase" came up with an update.zip patch that would enable opengl for this exact reason.

Any chance a developer could make something like this work on the hero? I love being rooted, and being able to run root programs like wireless tether, but I perfer stock roms. I am aware that there are a couple of custom roms that have this functionality built-in, but I'm not interested in custom roms.

Please let me know if you have any ideas....I really really miss being able to use google earth. What are the chances that jcase's opengl update for the eris will work on our phones? (I believe the hardware is very similar)

Thanks!

[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lostpilot28:
I take it that it's not a good thing to remove your SD card when you're running A2SD. I wanted to see if my apps were "really" running on the card, so I figured I'd just pop it out, see if the apps worked or not, then pop it back in. Well, the apps didn't work, but after re-inserting the card, I don't see any of the apps I had installed.

Anyone know how to fix this?

:confused:
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snooginsguy:
Reboot it?
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lostpilot28:
I did that about 5 times. ;)

I also tried reflashing the PlainJaneT2 ROM I have on the SD card, but oddly enough that didn't fix it either...probably because I didn't do a factory reset prior to doing it. I don't want to lose all my data and downloaded apps...
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] snooginsguy:
If you have Titanium Backup and have done a recent backup, it might work to restore the links to your SD apps, not sure though...

BTW sorry for the obvious first response, but you never know what people have/haven't tried. :)
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lostpilot28:
Well, I just flashed the PlainJaneT2 ROM to my phone last night, so I didn't get around to making a backup. I'm just not sure if there's a way to restore the links without doing a factory reset and starting over.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t2noob:
Try "a2sd install"

That commands makes sure everything is set for a2sd. see if that works.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lostpilot28:
Thanks, T2noob...do I need to run that from the command prompt with the phone connected via USB? I was surprised to see that almost every app on my phone was moved to the SD card! Right now I can still use it, but any app, including Market, is gone! :eek:
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t2noob:
You can either run it from the adb with this

adb shell a2sd install

or you can run it from a terminal emulator from the phone with this

su
a2sd install

and about the market being gone reboot your phone and it should come back.
[Droid Eris Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tkirton:
That market issue may not if he can't get to his ext partition.

That was an issue when I had zipalign running at boot. You have a market app that is located in /system/app (this is where it should be). When market updates, it puts an updated copy of itself in /data/app (which is on his ext partition). The icon is pointed to that app.

I didn't remove the market app fix program (though I did remove the command to get there).

If you still can't get market back, try the following:

1. Remount your phone (adb remount)

2. Go into the adb shell

3. Type /system/xbin/busybox cp -fp /data/a2sd/Vending.apk /system/app

4. Type /system/xbin/busybox rm -f /data/data/com.android.vending/cache/*

5. I'm not sure, but you may just want to reboot the phone.

This should bring back your market.
[Vibrant General] nricci:
Guys

I got two Vibrants to replace two G1s.

The compass is all over the place.

You change the phone inclination and north moves to east! You move it again, and north moves to south!

The G1s are precise. You tilt the phone but the north stays at north.

I'm confused.

Are you guys seeing this issue?
[Vibrant General] cashless:
I commented on this in another forum. The compass SUCKS BAD!!! It's horrible.

I believe that the GPS is also 2nd rate. It works well at faster speeds such as driving in a car, but when walking or running it's all over the place and VERY INACCURATE.
[Vibrant General] DaMaDo:
When I had the Evo, using Google Sky was 100% smooth and instant. On the Vibrant it's jerky and inaccurate. I'm guessing this is due to the compass issue? Hopefully it's a software/firmware issue.
[Vibrant General] teronzhul:
Yeah, I noticed while using GPSstatus that the compass reacts very slowly to changes in orientation. Samsung has been touting their 6 axis motion sensor, but it seems to be inferior to other products from what I'm seeing.
[Vibrant General] siberslug:
I've herd a lot about this but mine is working perfectly, well better than my N1 anyway and racing games are easier to play on this phone also, mines response smoothly.

Is there anyone else that has one work good ?
[Vibrant General] SykesAT:
I just used the NAV and it had me exiting at nearly every exit. It never pinpointed my location, It was always 0-100ft range and had to constantly reroute. I was on a major interstate (5 lane each way). G1 was much better but G1 did take an age to find my location initally.
[Vibrant General] unxconformed:
Is it possible the orientation of the sensor is different in the Vibrant as compared to other android phones? I tried the compass after reading this thread on my vibrant and noticed that if you lay the phone flat horizontal and spin it, the compass doesn't do anything. Now if you start tilting the phone up and down, the compass starts spinning. It's acting almost like it is reading the wrong orientation from the sensor...
[Vibrant General] boodies:
EXACTLY how mine was today when navigating for the first time. I was on the highway when I came close to the off ramp, the GPS thought that I exited off the highway. What gives? My G1 I had since the day it came out never did this.
[Vibrant General] unxconformed:
I just did a little testing,

The compass does not work right in any application. I tried streetview (with compass mode), wikitude, google skymaps, layar, and a compass app...

The thing just wildly swings around and does not point in the right direction ever. I tried calibrating it several times and it didn't help. I don't have a case on my phone and my g1 seems to handle the task just fine in the same room.
[Vibrant General] Jon C:
I have the same problem. The compass does not work at all, and 'swings around wildly' is 100% accurate.

Man, this is upsetting. :(
[Vibrant General] Qwijib0:
Another vote for the compass being pretty much worthless. Found a thread at androidforums (androidforums com / samsung-galaxy-s/104872-gps-issues.html) saying that samsung is working on a software fix by next month. Given the issues I've also seen with the wildly innacurate GPS and signal bars, I'm hoping these are all fixable with a firmware update.

This is the best android phone tmo has seen (and will probably see) for a while, so I'm hoping it's all just software.
[Vibrant General] bellrb19:
My compass has Parkinsons. Hope we can get an official comment from samsung or tmobile before our 14 days are up!
[Vibrant General] Jon C:
If something isn't said within the next week, I'm returning the phone. It's unacceptable to have such hardware flaws like that.

I'm really hoping they come forward and something is said soon. I'd hate to lose this screen. :(
[Vibrant General] unxconformed:
I just went to a few t-mobile stores today to try out their display models and compare the compass performance with my Vibrant. Every single Vibrant I tested in the stores had the same problem. I think either there was a ton of phones going out with bad compasses or the firmware is messed up and most people don't realize it because they don't use apps that utilize it.
[Vibrant General] nricci:
I agree with you.

Anyway, isn't that weird that a big company like Samsung released a SMART phone with such big flaws?

I mean, compass and gps are pretty much useless. On a phone that is Android based, with Maps and all sorts of location aware apps, it really surprises me that NO ONE at Samsung USA or Tmobile found these problems before.

Think about it: it took me 30 minutes after I received my phones to realize something was not right. A TMobile engineer testing this phone should be able to find the problem, EASILY, in less than one day.

Amazing.

Anyway, I don't know if I can post URLs here, but if you go to

androidforums dot com/samsung-galaxy-s/104872-gps-issues.html

you will notice that this phone is presenting these problems for a couple of months now, all over Europe and Asia, and so far with no solution or official statement from the manufacturer.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
[Vibrant General] nick_karstedt:
I read somewhere on the i9000 forums that the compass reports NON-STANDARD figures. It only requires a software fix. Samsung confirmed this 'bug' and it should be staged for next firmware update (Hopefully)
[Vibrant General] unxconformed:
I was doing a bit of poking around online and it does sound like Samsung's compass doesn't report it's values the same as the HTC units. I don't know if that is true or not, but you can download this app below and look at your compass output / accelerometer output and see the problem in real time.

http://mobilizycom.easycgi.com/dl/sensortest.html

When you run this app, look at the first 3 values for X, Y and Z. X represents your compass heading (ie direction pointing north, south, etc...) Y represents your pitch (angle from horizon in the vertical direction) Z represents your roll. To help visualize, think of your phone as a little airplane with the nose of the plane being the top of your phone (near usb port) and the wings being parallel with the screen surface.

What I noticed was that Y and Z report perfectly in real time and are accurate to represent my movements. X on the other hand is super delayed and after you make a move, you have to sit and wait for a while for the value to catch up to the actual heading. It also jumps around a bit and sometimes drifts away.

The next three values, a, b, and c are your accelerometer outputs.

I'm guessing the Y and Z values are calculated via the accelerometers and not the magnetometer, but it is very clear that the heading X is delayed, jumps around and in general is poor.

Try it for yourself if you'd like to confirm. I'd be interested in if some people had accuracy and response times on the X being the same as their Y and Z.
[Vibrant General] Jon C:
As much as I love xda, and 'the word' of people...

Could someone please post a link where Samsung actually said they're working on a fix for the Galaxy S compass problems (in Asia or otherwise)? This is a pretty expensive device, and these flaws are really unforgivable, if they are hardware-related (non-fixable).

The news of their knowledge / fixing of the problem is the deciding factor in me keeping this otherwise excellent device.
[Vibrant General] cnbuff410:
I meet with this problem too, double checked with my Hero, it's Vibrant's problem for sure.

I am wondering if Samsung will work on this bug.

Anybody has any idea about if I can return this phone because of this deficiency? I bought it from RadioShark and the 6 axis motion sensor is the only reason( I am a developer).
[Vibrant General] Jon C:
I'm on hold with Samsung right now. I'm sure they'll feed me a line of bull****, but we'll see.

T-Mobile said that there is zero flexibility, outside of the Buyer's Remorse grace period. The CSR said that it's ultimately up to the retail manager, and that some stores are very flexible, especially for long-term customers, when it comes to defective devices.

Otherwise, I was told to be worried about the Buyer's Remorse period, and that if I had any doubts, I should return it so as to not be stuck with a $500+ device that does not function properly.

They also said that they've heard nothing from Samsung regarding the matter...
